Hit song alert! SPELLS has a brand-new digital single out today and it's called "Don't Tell Me Anything". It's a pay-what-you-want track with all proceeds benefiting The Blue Bench, a Denver-based organization working to eliminate sexual assault and diminish the impact it has on individuals, their loved ones and our community through comprehensive issue advocacy, prevention and care. You can donate and download "Don't Tell Me Anything" from our WEB STORE, our BANDCAMP and of course SPELLS' BANDCAMP. This new SPELLS tune is also noteworthy as it's the first recording to feature the band's highly energetic and fantastically talented new member, Dusk Monarch. In addition to that factoid the track also features Stephanie Byrne, the powerhouse front woman for SLN labelmates Cheap Perfume. This collab was years in the making and we're all happy to finally have it out in the world with the added opportunity to support The Blue Bench, a local cause we all believe in. This song won't arrive on streaming platforms until January 5 (2023!), so go on... treat yourself to an awesome new jam ahead of the streamers and help your community while doing so. We ALL thank you for it!

Hello out there! We are very pleased to finally and officially welcome our longtime friends, Discomfort Creature, to Team SLN! The band hails from both Denver, CO, USA and Lugano, Ticino, Switzerland and hops back and forth between the two regions to double the impact of their rock and toll precision. Discomfort Creature features some of our oldest buddies in the biz- Chris Fogal, Ian O'Dougherty and Dan Fox (band members' credits include The Gamits, Uphollow, Little Thunder, plus lots more) playing a high-energy brand of garagey pop-punk with songs that are chock full of hooks and harmonies that get stuck in your head for weeks. OK, more like months! Discomfort Creature's "S/T" (self-titled) LP is a remastered and expanded edition of the band's debut self-titled EP that was released in 2021, including 3 bonus tracks and a revised running order. The vinyl LP was recently released in Europe via Bearded Punk Records (Belgium) as well as Monster Zero Records (Austria) and it will be released in the US of A by us on December 8, 2022. Guess what tho! Pre-orders are up right now! You can pre-order the LP on 12" orange vinyl (digital download included) or as a standalone digital long player from our WEB STORE or our BANDCAMP right now. *Insider Tip*... album pre-orders get the full digital immediately! The latest single, 'Threshold', is up on our bandcamp sampler if you'd like to go check that out. As an added bonus, all mail orders of Discomfort Creature's "S/T" vinyl LP will get a free vinyl LP copy of the Black In Bluhm Music compilation, "Farm To Turntable", while supplies last (go HERE for a look/listen). Finally, for now, Discomfort Creature is having what will be a slightly belated album release party at the Hi-Dive in Denver on December 29, 2022. Come on down and catch up with all the buddies that will be at this one during the holiday season. It's pretty perfect timing really!

Today is release day for the The Smokestack Relics "Anatomy Of A Wolf" FANGIRL #2 Zine + Flexi Disc 7" Combo. Loyal followers likely know the deal, but FANGIRL Issue #2 features the latest SLN roster addition, The Smokestack Relics. There are interviews, photos, factoids and more that ‘Stacks fans old and new will dig. The included yellow translucent 7” flexi disc features The Smokestack Relics performing the song 'Anatomy Of A Wolf', which is a foot-stompin’-hand-clappin’-sing-alongin’ good time. You can grab a zine/flexi combo (with song download!) from our WEB STORE and our BANDCAMP. Both sites also feature a digital single version of ‘Anatomy Of A Wolf’ if you just want the song without any physical attachment to this realm. The aforementioned digital single is streaming everywhere and the zine/flexi combo can be found at choice retail establishments. We love helping View Shed Studio and Incite Colorado get the FANGIRL zines out into the world. We truly appreciate all the support from the friends and fans that keep their ears open for the various sounds we share!

Pressing Info: 150 yellow translucent 7" flexi discs with issue #2 of FANGIRL / digital single.

Howdy out there! We at SLNHQ have been enjoying the slower pace of late, but the shark must keep moving… We’re excited to tell you that FANGIRL #2, featuring The Smokestack Relics, will be released on September 22, 2022! You may recall that FANGIRL is Colorado’s niftiest fan-zine. Each issue features one Colorado band, selected by the editorial staff. There’s a wealth of band info, record reviews and a unique multi-part interview. As a bonus, each issue comes with a 7” flexi disc with music by the featured band. How cool is all of that?!... It’s FANGIRL cool!! Issue #2, printed by View Shed Studio, features brand new SLN family members The Smokestack Relics. The flexi disc/digital single features the ‘Stacks performing their new single 'Anatomy Of A Wolf', which offers an eclectic glimpse at the sounds the Denver, CO-based brotherly duo of Cameron and Collin Webb (the ‘Stacks y’all) are capable of making. The Smokestack Relics "Anatomy Of A Wolf" FANGIRL #2 Zine + Flexi Disc 7" Combo is now available for pre-order via our WEB STORE as well as our BANDCAMP. ‘Anatomy Of A Wolf’, which is catalogued as SLN-225, will also be available as a standalone digital single (hint: zine pre-orders get the single right away). There’s a release party for FANGIRL #2 on September 23 at The Squire Lounge in Denver that will see The Smokestack Relics headlining a bill that also features Charlie & The Shithead (of SPELLS, the subjects of FANGIRL #1) as well as A Strange Happening. If you haven’t seen the ‘Stacks live, you owe it to yourself to get to that show! Thanks so much for supporting the label as well as the friends we’re lucky enough to collaborate with!
